I think this is a sign of how good Crowder is at spotting over-looked talent.
At a school like BU, most of the players have already been drafted before they
came here (notice that none of the good BU players are available in the draft
or as free agents... heck, even two of our 4 "walk-on" seniors where drafted
(Pratt before he arrived, Friedman after his frosh year).
Crowder doesn't get to select the talent BU, Maine, BC, etc. get to. Crowder
just seems like a genious at spotting talent others miss.
I don't mean this to be a reverse woof, I'm not downing Parker, I'm just saying
that stats like those above tend to only increase my respect for Crowder.
